Excursion Itinerary: From Cairo To Alexandria
At the established time you will start the full day excursion to the city of Alexandria. After your arrival in this ancient city, the first place to visit will be the Roman amphitheater of Kom El Deka, which at one time housed more than 800 spectators, and today offers you beautiful views with its gardens and mosaics in the baths and Roman villas. You will continue to the catacombs of Kom el Shogafa, an important archaeological site from the 1st century that consists of three underground levels in which more than 300 mummies and funerary divinities are sheltered, as well as various Greco-Roman motifs. This cemetery was built in the 2nd century and is still one of the 7 wonders of the Middle Ages.
After visiting Pompey's Pillar, you will have time to lunch at a local restaurant (optional), and enjoy free time, then you will pass by the Library of Alexandria, to take some pictures of this construction that commemorates, in its functions, the Ancient Library of Alexandria known by all and renowned for being the seed of knowledge and even one of the first research institutes in the world.
To end this spectacular tour to the city of Alexandria, you will visit by the Qaitbay castle, a 15th-century fortress located in the port and which, in the past, housed the famous lighthouse of Alexandria, whose ruins are still preserved.
